Applications

What brands use it for.

Used by brands building traditional cod-liver-oil products and combination formulas that draw on its naturally occurring vitamins A and D alongside EPA and DHA.

Differentiator

What sets it apart.

Unlike refined body oils, cod liver oil carries naturally occurring vitamins A and D. Total omega-3 is a minimum of 20%, with EPA at a minimum of 6% and DHA at a minimum of 7% in natural proportions.

Fatty-acid science

What the fatty acids support.

  • Heart function

    EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function (EFSA authorised at 250 mg/day in the finished supplement, EU Reg. 432/2012).

  • Brain function

    DHA contributes to maintenance of normal brain function at 250 mg/day (EU Reg. 432/2012).

  • Vision

    DHA contributes to maintenance of normal vision at 250 mg/day (EU Reg. 432/2012).

  • Vitamin A & D

    Cod liver oil is a natural source of vitamins A and D, supporting immune function and the maintenance of normal bone (EU Reg. 432/2012).

These reflect established research on the fatty acids the oil contains. Health claims on finished supplements are the brand owner's regulatory responsibility.
